I'm down to the final planning stages of my new...latest cloth doll.  I'm quite satisfied with the results.

So, I had quite a few, very detailed responses, to my Facebook request to assist in designing these girls.  Beginning today, September 26th, I'm going to begin posting the finished pieces.  When the participants see their ideas actually included in one of the paintings,  they'll know they've won!  I'm so excited about this..I hope they can recognize their own ideas.

The question may arise, "Do you need help coming up with ideas?".  The answer is "No", not in this case.  Each lil' girl already has a voice of her own before I place her on canvas.  I felt it would be fun to have others give me their opinion of how these sweeties speak to them...I'd like to know what they see when they look at them in process as opposed to my giving them all of the information by completing each personality myself.  I'd like to know if our visions are the same.  It's been an exciting process thus far!

Help me decide on: Skin color, hair color, eye color, dress color and a name for each.
Note: These are under paintings-a value guide, their hairstyles and current skin color will not dictate my final choices.   Choose your favorite one to comment on.  If your idea is used, you'll get a free print of the work once completed!

 I'm feeling inspired to collect resources for my next series of paintings: "Barns and Farm Animals". Email your photos to [email protected]. 

If your photo/s are chosen and used, you'll receive a free artist's print of the piece once completed.

Thank you for your participation!
